A Rare Presentation of Posterior Cerebral Artery Stroke With Monocular Hemianopia After Diesel Exposure.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Acute ischemic stroke of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) presents with variable symptoms that may initially make it challenging to diagnose. Common etiologies of PCA stroke include large and small artery disease, atherosclerosis, and cardioembolism. We present a 69-year-old male, initially diagnosed with sinusitis at an urgent care facility, who presented with worsening headache and peripheral vision loss following exposure to diesel vapor and exhaust. Physical examination revealed a right monocular temporal hemianopia and subsequent imaging showed infarction of the left occipital lobe. Due to the length of time between the onset of the infarct and medical treatment, angiography and physical intervention were not indicated and management was done medically. This case presents a unique exposure prior to the development of a PCA stroke, as well as an atypical visual defect and suggests that physicians should consider neuroimaging in patients with nonspecific neurological findings such as new-onset headache and vision changes.
